Re: General Gaming News

Unable to decide how many developers it'll have to fire to achieve it's Q4 net profit targets, EA decides that selling enough copies for 1.25% of the world's population is an achievable goal for their next Battlefield game. https://www.eurogamer.net/ea-reportedly-expects-battlefield-6-to-have-100-mi...

Re: General Gaming News

I've seen the updated model and I think the new one looks better. I find Nightdive are excellent at updating things to have the same feel as the original. Besides, the Cyborg Midwife was always scary because of her soothing, but electronic voice saying "I'll tear out your spine." That was always the...

Re: General Gaming News

If this had the same level of attention given to the environments as it had the character models, I'd have been interested. It feels like there's a new version of System Shock 2 released every 5 years or so, but they only ever update the enemies and weapons, the level geometry looks identical to the...

Well I'm certainly excited. Villeneuve is my favourite director of the last decade.

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

If no Americans die they might call it quits at that like they did with Soleimani. I'm assuming Israel will push for more no matter what. If it were Obama in charge, sure, but Trump? He's trying to do the dictatorial strongman act. It doesn't matter if he attacked first, Iran have attacked him . It...

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

https://i.postimg.cc/h49dZkG4/IMG-2327.jpg These things are really well written. And, innevitably: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn7ze4vmk2pt So I'm guessing that's another round of airstrikes from the US on all of the launchers? Maybe a quick killing of the Supreme Leader? You know, a proportion...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)

Wait, they called the previous film "Dead Reckoning Part 1", and the immediate sequel is called "Final Reckoning" and not "Dead Reckoning Part 2"? The naming scheme for MI films has confused me in the past (I accidentally watched a later film before the preceding one a few years back), but that's ju...

Re: Trump: Impeach is the new Orange

Trump doesn't care about the UN. It's not like they'll do anything to him or the US anyway. Hell, world leaders who are obviously opposed to it are "calling for calm" rather than outright condemning it - the entire UN-aligned world is terrified of being blacklisted by him. As for Congress, well it's...

Netanyahu played him like a fiddle, even more expertly than Putin.
Indeed. Netanyahu probably showed him an image of a building with a photoshopped label saying "Nuclear Weapons Facility" on it.

Re: General Film News

I disagree. I also don't think it's reassuring that they repeated the best gag from the first trailer.
